Two first-round selections would be a blessing for most teams. If the Celtics have to keep theirs, it won't be the end of the world, but in their situation, one marquee talent is better than two rotation players.

I'm not saying you can't find a sleeper at No. 21. You can—and that's especially true in this year's deep class—but it's less likely.

If the Celtics stay in their current position they should take some combination of Royce White, Andrew Nicholson and Fab Melo. They need size, and these three players fit their draft value. White and Nicholson would bring additional scoring to the Celtic lineup, and Melo will be a physical defensive presence in the paint.

But none of these players are future NBA stars.

Boston, realistically, isn't going to move into the top 10. Its picks are its biggest asset. And I can't see another team giving up its top-ten pick for that price.
